хоготпуль

Ket

Etymology

Inherited from Proto-Ketic *pʰogotpʰɯl (“outmarriage group”), derived from Proto-Ketic *pʰo (“all in unison”) + Proto-Yeniseian *ad (“bone”) + Proto-Yeniseian *pʰɯl (“growth, accumulation”).[1] Alternatively, analyzable as a compound word consisting of *хо- (“all in unison”, extinct formant) + Ket аʼт (aˀd, “bone”) + -хыль (“growth, accumulation”, only found in compounds), the first formant of which is also found in the cognate Ket хөт (hōt, “small fry; school of immature fish”).

The compound word formant Ket аʼт (aˀd, “bone”), in this context, refers to relatives and lineages, a semantic field shared by the southern neighbours of Kets, the Turks and the Mongols, according to CHYD.
